Marx's money capital was a commodity - gold. This embodied labour. It was quite different from what Jurrian is categorising as capital. In Marx's presentation to be capital something had first to be a commodity. A commodity must have a physical use value and also contain labour. -----Original Message----- From: OPE-L [mailto:OPE-L@SUS.CSUCHICO.EDU] On Behalf Of glevy@PRATT.EDU Sent: 11 October 2007 02:32 To: OPE-L@SUS.CSUCHICO.EDU Subject: Re: [OPE-L] That hissing? It's the sound of bubblenomics deflating Hi Paul C: Jurriaan has claimed that bonds represent a form of capital and you claim that this is not the case but rather that it expresses only the "surface appearance" of the matter. My question to you is: is what Marx refers to as "money capital" actually capital from your perspective or does that also only represent a "surface appearance"? In solidarity, Jerry
